A stand-alone story.
Aristella Mariano promised to herself that she would never take that bus back to her province after the incident happened a decade ago. But while planning to resign from her current work to move abroad, a phone call from her old neighbor dropped a bomb of a news that forced her to break that promise. In just one single journey ticket, she stepped foot on the land that holds nothing but dark past and baggage of memories she had been burying for years now. And that includes, Emilio Marcelo.
Yes, that Emilio Marcelo who was the grandson of her grandmother's best friend. That guy who she was forced to befriend but ended in an undecided-label relationship. That man who has never been a stranger to her, not even after 10 years of being apart after the bloodstained history they shared.
In just one phone call she should've missed intentionally, the unresolved past is now part of her present. But for a person who's a dedicated leaver, staying is the last option to choose when situations become unbearable. For someone like Stella, not even the love that sprouted under the summer street lights is enough reason to stay.

72 hours
I hated Blue for almost 10 years. It took me 72 hours to fall in love with her. Even though it might seem unusual for a 17 year old, I have a habit of timing things. In 6th grade it took me 2 hours to stand on the boogie board without falling on the water. Almost 5 days to read 'Dracula' in freshman year and 7 days to gather courage and ask a girl called Mary to go out with me. 12 minutes to set up an Instagram account and half an hour to organize my room every time we come to Cousins. Honestly, I don't know why I do it. To make my dad's watch or maybe to get a sense of control. Regardless of the motive, I've done it since I was a kid. The numbers make sense, I was afraid of falling so it took me a while to learn to stand confidently on the board, afraid of being rejected so it took me a whole week to ask a girl out. But I can't, for the love of my sanity, explain what happened this past week. Ellie is someone I never liked, since the day she compared me to Sid, from the Ice Age, things between us have been a war zone. I can't help it, she gets under my skin like no one else ever did. So I'd like to understand why, while we were stuck together during a storm, it took me just 72 hours to fall in love with her. -- 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' fanfiction. Ellie is my OC and belongs to me but anything associated with TSITP doesn't. Mature themes such as death, abandonment trauma, depression, and sickness are explored. Proceed with caution.Complete

My Courageous Love ❤
"She loved the sea. She liked the sharp salty smell of the air, and the vastness of the horizons bounded only by a vault of azure sky above. It made her feel small but free as well." " The Sun was probably waiting for his whole life to go down from his pedestal so that his beloved moon would shine above his skies!" sagot ni Mr. Rosario ng tanungin niya kung ano ang iniisip ng Araw sa tuwing bumaba ito sa langit. Her question was strange but he obliged to answer. " You think so, Sir?" susog natanong pa niya habang nakatingala sa kalangitan. Kakababa pa lamang ng araw at mula sa kabilang dulo ay nagpapakita na ang buwan. "I believe so." Pagpapatuloy pa nito. Katulad niya ay nakatingin din ito sa kalangitan. "Don't you think it's unfair?" she said after awhile, the old man looked at her and wait for her to finish her question. "Imagine the Sun needs to die everyday so that his Moon can shine through his skies? What a love?" emosyonal na sambit niya, tulad niya ang araw. Kailangan niya masaktan ng paulit ulit para lamang sa kasiyahan ni Lucas and its been draining her up but she loves him so much that she tolerated all of his mistakes to the point na nawawalan na siyang na pagmamahal at respeto sa sarili. "Well, that's most love do. Selfishness it may seems but that reality, hija." komento ng kasama. "Looking at the Sun and the Moon, its enchanting love story. But you see, sometimes great love story doesn't have happy endings. They're people who are bound to fall inlove to someone they can never be with for the rest of their lives. And yet, they're grateful enough to experience that one thing, that thing everyone is wishing for. Love." He says. At pinagpatuloy nila ang kwentuhan sa isang dinner sa dining area ng resort. #somecourage #alotoflove #endlessfaithComplete
Lighter than Air
équipe Series #1 Astraea Isleen Cohen People expect Astraea's life to be happy and complete. But little do they know, she carries countless stories within her-different sides, perspectives, and colors. Her life has many sides, each with its own perspective. Many views, both from others and herself-some bright, some dark. And colors, shades of black and light, blending into something complex and hard to understand, let alone love. She thought this was simply what she had to go through. Until she met the love she believed would stay and save her from drowning. There was no doubt-he loved her dearly, and she loved him deeply. Together, they found their own meaning of love. But life was unkind to them both. They fought hard. She battled her own demons while holding on to him, refusing to let go. But he fought for what he believed was right. Then she realized-kahit gaano pa kahigpit ang kapit mo sa isang bagay na pilit kumakawala, it will always find a way to break free. Kung hindi man makawala sa higpit ng hawak mo, sugatan ka na lang para bitawan mo. She was deeply hurt and traumatized. So was he. Pareho silang nahihirapang huminga-so what was missing? Why? Many questions lingered. Many remained unanswered. They had both made sacrifices, yet they kept asking themselves the same question: "What is lighter than air?"
